His teaching philosophy is taken from his website:

My Primary Goals
* I teach students how to learn.
* I match my teaching to the student's learning style (and not the other way round).
* I motivate my students by empowering them and introducing possibilities.
My Interaction with Students
* I will never be angry if you make a mistake.
* I will never be angry if you ask a question.
* I will only be upset if you do not try. If you do not try, I cannot teach you.
* If you do not understand, it is my fault, not yours.
My Foundations
* Piano lessons should be fun.
* Trying is often more important than succeeding.
* Piano study is not always going to be easy, but it should be satisfying.
* Exploration and creativity is encouraged.
